Because I think random passers-by might believe I am simply referencing the video game coming out tomorrow, let me remind you once again that, oh no, I am not. I am referencing a wholly different weird-ass death threat.

Time to bring back the old tried-and-true.

Last real significant grabs arriving in this box: the Pink VHS and soundtrack CD!

Combining those with the other stuff I already had (original manga, CD single, anime comic, movie pamphlet and guide book)… I have a pretty comprehensive Pink collection!

Believe it or not, but I was personally missing a couple Shenlong Times (even though obviously between us all at the site we had them). I rectified that! Now I have two of most of them! 😂 …… and an extra copy of Daizenshuu 7 to specifically keep on hand in my office at arm’s length at all times.

A brief pause for the not-necessarily-so-exciting documentation materials:

I like keeping track of the random compilation giveaways at events like Jump Festa. This JF2025 book has samples from a few different DB manga.

(I have an unpublished wiki page listing all these books…! 😂😭)

Grabbed the 1988 No. 23 issue of Weekly Shonen Jump, notable for DB chapter 173’s title page featuring Toriyama’s drawing of a contest winning Goku outfit! Subsequent printings don’t include all the explanatory text. Also: have you noticed this design just hanging out in the Daizenshuu 1 interview?!

That was supposed to be 2009-2010 V-Jump issues (not 2019). This is the Kai and Dragon Battlers and Raging Blast era. Real dire in terms of artwork and content (pre-Heroes/Xenoverse), but specifically wanted to get certain Super Saiyan 3 debuts for the archives…

It’ll be awfully tight if you only have 5 days. The travel between Tokyo and the other two alone will eat up probably half a day.

As for places that “aren’t worth the hype”, it depends on what you’ve seen hyped. I stay away from travel influencer types, so I’m not aware of what they’re hyping up.

If there’s anything specific you have in mind, I might be able to give a few pointers.
